Home Sleep Study (HST)
You’ll get a portable monitor that’s small and lightweight, and you can pick it up at our sleep lab. We will provide step-by-step instructions, but the basics include placing a belt around your mid-section (which is linked to the monitor by a wire), attaching a clip to your finger, putting an airflow sensor under your nose, and turning on the monitor. You usually return the device to the lab the next day, and our technician will create a detailed report based on your results.
A home sleep test (HST) measures oxygen saturation, heart rate, airflow, movement in your chest and abdomen and it will also record time spent snoring and your sleep position. So a HST is effective at helping to diagnosis sleep apnea (one of the most common sleep disorders), but not other disorders.
In Lab Attended Sleep Study
An in-lab sleep study provides Dr. Meng with the most complete evaluation of your sleep. You will be required to stay overnight at our sleep lab.
An in-lab sleep study, also known as a polysomnogram, records your brain waves, heartbeats and breathing as you sleep. It also charts your eye movements, limb movements and oxygen in your blood. This data will help Dr. Meng make a diagnosis and develop a treatment plan.
At San Francisco Neurology and Sleep Center, we accept most major insurance providers. If you do not see your insurance listed please call the office for more information.
